Abstract | Theoretical model suggests antigen-sensitive cells produce antibodies only when two antigenic determinants are recognized, and explains self-nonself discrimination by antibody system. Specific antigen-sensitive cells accumulate in absence of foreign antigens and co-operate to induce antibodies if antigen enter the body; but antigen-sensitive cells specific for self antigen are paralyzed by continued presence.
